A Commitment to Health and Fitness

The 30-Day Clean Eating Challenge is over and I'm happy to say a success. So much so clean eating will continue to be On The Menu.

The beginning of this week's commitment to health and fitness will be a challenge. With unexpected travel under less than ideal circumstances I will do whatever I can to stick to what is my "normal". My routine. My comfort. That means doing whatever I can to eat clean and exercise. Note to self: don't expect it to be perfect.

For a few days the menu this week has to be meals that don't require cooking or refrigeration.

Remember this pizza, Chicken, Goat Cheese, Roasted Red Pepper Pizza with Arugula, on last week's menu? I have to say it is one of the best pizza's ever! It's homemade with restaurant flavor. You can find the recipe at Food Obsessed. Who Says Eating Healthy Has To Be Boring?  It's in the sauce. A tasty non-traditional pizza sauce. A culinary delight for sure.
